Problem

Find the greatest common factor 42 and 49.

2

Hint

Finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers involves determining the largest number that divides both numbers without leaving a remainder.

3

Step

Let’s find the GCF of 42 and 49 using a step-by-step process:

4

Step

Factors of 42:

1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

5

Step

Factors of 49:

1, 7, 49

6

Step

Common factors of 42 and 49 are

1,7

7

Step

The greatest common factor (GCF) of 42 and 49 is 7, as it’s the largest number that divides both 42 and 49 without leaving a remainder.

8

Step

So, the greatest common factor of 42 and 49 is

7

Sumup

Can you summarize what you’ve understood in the above steps?

10

Choice.A

The GCF of 42 and 49 is the highest number that can divide both without leaving a remainder so this is correct

7

11

Choice.B

This is not correct. While 3 is a factor of 42, it is not a factor of 49. The greatest common factor must be a factor of both numbers

3

12

Choice.C

This is not correct because 5 is not a factor of either 42 or 49 in this case

5

13

Choice.D

This is not correct. 1 is a common factor of all numbers, but it is not the greatest common factor in this case
